Any recommendations of equine sports massage people in the Nottingham area? Thanks

Ahh ok ! Thankyou very much!:) Xx

Thank you DSCC, she's a welsh d x tb. And OK thanks for your advice and yes I've been letting her out in the menarge for 20mins twice per day when she is in, once in morning while I muck etc.. and 20mins at night when I skip out etc,. Thanks for your advice :)

Was going to look into one of them. Thanks for all of your advice! :) Its winter i imagine most horses are quite flighty at the moment!

Hi everyone :). Just a question.. Are you aloud to wear long boots for dressage if under 16? or is it gaitors and short boots for under 16's?

Thankyou Amaranta :). I didnt think it would be her feed either as i spoke to a qualified nutritionist and she said none of this feed should heat her up. She was the same last winter and she was turned out everyday but was in at night, but because we have changed yards the schedule is every...

She does have hay left in the morning yes. and 45mins school work 3 times a week and 1hour hack or so 3 days a week. My horse is in perfectly good condition so she's oviously getting anough hay/feed. When she i out in the field she also gets grass and hay chucked out their, and yes gave her a...

Thank you adorablealice :). And yes very difficult when I already excersise her 6 days a week she should have a day or two off a week surely?. And turnout is very aliminted in my area its either 24/7 turnout with no facilities or in every night and out every other day with facilities so I choose...

Thank you Mary christmas. Hope she is recovering ok

OK maybe they do, but not in my area except its either field 24/7 turnout with no excersise paddock or a limited turnout and a excersise paddock.

Most livery yards don't allow 24/7 in winter because of the fields don't want to ruin them etc.. she gets 24/7 turnout in summer though

Thank you p87. We have had her all checked over as when you ask for canter she shoots off into a bolt, thought it was because she was in pain as she only goes fresh when you ask for canter but had her checked all over and nothing to be seen, must be lack of turnout.. just thought to put her on...

Thank you, may have to try and convince the yard owner if she can just get turned out everyday, even just for a couple of hours!. I my as thought its because its all changed in weather, turnout etc..

I ride her 4 times a week my instructor rides her 2 times a week too. When shes out in the field she has 1 haynet filled for the night and when she is in during the day she has 1 hay net in day and 1 at night.

She's fine on the ground, soon as you get on her she extreamly forward and when you ask for canter she shoots off, had everything checked back,teeth, saddle etc.. everything fine! So think it may just be her as she's coming in a lot more because of winter as she was like this last winter, had...
